Growing up, Christmas morning we could open the stocking gifts, usually inexpensive trinkets to occupy our time, an orange and ribbon candy. When my patens had their coffee, dad sat down under the tree and passed out our presents. We usually got clothes and one or wo toys. I loved crafts, Santa was good about remembering that. Mom made fudge and pumpkin cookies, I love them!!! We had ham, mashed potatoes, stuffing, gravy, apple salad, homemade noodles, pumpkin pie.
